293. I disregard anything the UN has to say about Israel (like the Goldstone Report) becasue I think the UN is biased against Israel. Here's why:
1.
In 1975 the UN voted that Zionism is Racism. So they feel that considering Israel a Jewish country, or a country for Jews is racist. They have no problem, however, with Saudi Arabia forbidding any display from any religion other than Islam. You would not be allowed to wear a lapel pin with a Christmas tree on it. Any houses of worship except mosques are forbidden. Yet Israel, with churches, mosques, a huge Bahai temple, and whatever the Druze have, in addition to synagogues, they consider racist.
2.
Countries permanently sitting on the U.N. Security Council: China, France, Russian Federation, United Kingdom, United States
Countries eligible to sit on the U.N. Security Council: Afghanistan, Albania, Algeria, Andorra, Angola, Antigua and Barbuda, Argentina, Armenia, Australia, Austria, Azerbaijan, Bahamas, Bahrain, Bangladesh, Barbados, Belarus, Belgium, Belize, Benin, Bhutan, Bolivia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Botswana, Brazil, Brunei Darussalam, Bulgaria, Burkina Faso, Burundi, Cambodia, Cameroon, Canada, Cape Verde, Central African Republic, Chad, Chile, Colombia, Comoro Islands, Congo, Costa Rica, Cote d'lvoire, Croatia, Cuba, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Democratic People's Republic of Korea, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Denmark, Djibouti, Dominica, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Egypt, El Salvador, Equatorial Guinea, Eritrea, Estonia, Ethiopia, Fiji, Finland, Gabon, Gambia, Georgia, Germany, Ghana, Greece, Grenada, Guatemala, Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Guyana, Haiti, Honduras, Hungary, Iceland, India, Indonesia, Iran, Iraq, Ireland, Italy, Jamaica, Japan, Jordan, Kazakhstan, Kenya, Kiribati, Kuwait, Kyrgyzstan, Laos, Latvia, Lebanon, Lesotho, Liberia, Libya, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Madagascar, Malawi, Malaysia, Maldives, Mali, Malta, Marshall Islands, Mauritania, Mauritius, Mexico, Micronesia, Moldova, Monaco, Mongolia, Morocco, Mozambique, Myanmar, Namibia, Nauru, Nepal, Netherlands, New Zealand, Nicaragua, Niger, Nigeria, Norway, Oman, Pakistan, Palau, Panama, Papua New Guinea, Paraguay, Peru, Philippines, Poland, Portugal, Qatar, Republic of Korea, Romania, Rwanda, St. Kitts and Nevis, St. Lucia, St. Vincent and the Grenadines, Samoa, San Marino, Sao Tome and Principe, Saudi Arabia, Senegal, Seychelles, Sierra Leone, Singapore, Slovakia, Slovenia, Solomon Islands, Somalia, South Africa, Spain, Sri Lanka, Sudan, Suriname, Swaziland, Sweden, Syria, Tajikistan, Tanzania, Thailand, The Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, Togo, Tonga, Trinidad and Tobago, Tunisia, Turkey, Turkmenistan, Uganda, Ukraine, United Arab Emirates, Uruguay, Uzbekistan, Vanuatu, Venezuela, Viet Nam, Yemen, Yugoslavia, Zambia, Zimbabwe.

3.
The UN criticized Israel for their 1976 attack on Entebbe. (They wanted to vote to condemn Israel, but the US made it clear they would veto this.) The Secretary-general of the UN, Kurt Waldheim (yes, the Nazi who dropped pamphlets into Russia calling for the murder of all the Jews) said that Israel's raid on Entebbe airport TO FREE THE ISRAELIS AND JEWS THAT THE HIJACKERS WERE HOLDING HOSTAGE AND THREATENING TO KILL "constitutes a serious violation of the national sovereignty of a United Nations member state."
So when I see anything about the Goldstone report, I remember how they felt about Israel's totally justified raid on Entebbe.
